I always wanted to play this cource, the holes from the 8 freeway look really cool. Yesterday I got my chance as I had time towards the end of the day. I cant say I was treated well in the pro shop but I did manage to get off at a rate twice as high as the guy I was paired with but ok beggars cant be choosers . I did find the greens to be fast and the sand was in good shape , the fairways were pretty good but the tee boxes were really bare. The weather was nice and the guy I played with told me a strong breeze blows here most days. The course plays slow and because of the rate guys seem to feel the need to take their time and some of yours . A marshall with some teeth could really speed this place up a bit . I didnt find the course to be real interesting and as stated above didnt find the staff real helpful. I might come here again but only with a coupon I really believe this isnt a course worth 90 bucks mid week but the weather was cooler than anyplace around and with fast smooth greens sometimes thats enough but if your looking for a fast friendly round at a course that will stick out in your memory in my opinion this aint it

Played in the GK event on 6/14.
The event was fun like it always is, even if you play bad, there is still plenty of fun to be had when plying in a GK event.
This was my first trip to Riverwalk Golf Club. Practice facility was decent, you hit off of the grass for warm-ups and the have a split practice area. The weekend warrior area is by the club house and then the real practice facility is down the range when you first drive in the facility.
The practice green was nice, so it was exciting to know that the greens were going to be running quick.

On Course:
We started on Presidio? And the course was in good shape, considering the water conditions, but it played good. A lot of different types of shots and when the wind is going it can be some tricky shots as well. The first par 3 - was the area where everything came to a stop. Backed up about three groups on the tee.
The next holes helped to free up some time but still slowed down until about #6 - then it was off to the golf again.
Tee to green was in decent shape, fairway bunkers were in good shape (not too much sand so you can hit out of them), bunkers next to the greens where full of SOFT sand. And the greens on this side were a tad bit slower than the practice green.

Off to the next side of the mountain.
Again I think a little bit of local knowledge is good for this course, just to have an idea where to aim or how far the trouble actually is in play. Tee to green the course required some shots to take full advantage, GREENS on this side where much slower than the practice greens. So you have to adjust.

Overall the course is fun and will challenge your game. If I was closer I would play it again, because it is a fun course.
